The cabinet to the left has old sewing items we have picked up here and there, as well as, some that was from my family and my husbands family. The giant scissors bought at hobby lobby and painted, the giant needle my dh made out of a dowel rod on his wood lathe. The big needle were knitting needles I painted. the BIG buttons we made on my DH wood lathe. The dress was my mothers dress from a sweet heart banquet she and my father went to in 1962. Just wanted to share.
I love it all but that dress your Mom wore is awesome!! :)

It looks very nice. I thought for a minute that the doll dress was for a tiny tiny baby. And I love the dress on the dress form.

That looks wonderful, does it inspire you to keep your sewing room clean, just to highlight it?
